Tiempo España Dance Academy C.I.C. is a not for profit organisation which was founded by Benjamin and Aimi Karst and incorporated on 24th November 2016. It is a community interest company set up for the purpose of making Cuban dances and related activities accessible to anyone who is interested irrespective of monetary, geographic or health constraints.
Please consult the following page for a list of our current projects.
Sections of the community we want to address include but are not limited to:
-
The elderly in the community to provide a means of regular physical activity and socialisation
-
People in the community who do not have access to public transport and those who feel isolated to allow them to engage socially with others
-
People with physical or mental disabilities who would like to be involved in dance
-
The wider community to provide an accessible form of sport to help people lead a healthier lifestyle
-
People with a low household income who cannot afford dance lessons
-
Mothers and/or fathers with small children who could bring their kids along to class as well as classes specifically for children
-
Daytime or night-time rather than evening classes for shift workers
-
People with learning difficulties
For examples of the services we aim to provide please read the information on our Services page but we are very happy to custom tailor workshops and events to share our passion for Cuban dances with the community.
We work in close partnership with the dance school Tiempo España Dance Academy (http://tiempoespana.wixsite.com/tiempo-espana) whose continued donations, support and expertise are invaluable to the operations of Tiempo España Dance Academy C.I.C.
